Strictly speaking garrisons are found on uncontested worlds with enough strategic significance and potential for trouble to warrant the presence of combat troops. In theory such worlds are low risk stations where combat or civil disorder are not expected. Because of this, a unit hired for garrison duty is not likely to see action, and probably will not receive good pay or other benefits. Because House units are more loyal, less cautious, and certainly less expensive to maintain in the field that are mercenaries, House leaders often employ mercenaries for garrison duty to free up House troops for frontline duty.
